A powerful Barossa blend showing the harmony between Shiraz and Durif. Rich, deeply coloured and full of flavour, it reflects years of experimenting with Durif to create a bold and distinctive Barossa red.

The Green Patch Barossa Valley Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon 2022
Original price was: $13.80.$9.00Current price is: $9.00.Boutiques now make more wine than they can sell at the high prices they charge. Indeed 50% of the current oversupply is called ‘premium’ for the first time ever. Glug hunts through this surplus to find wines we bottle as ‘One Offs’ like this Green Patch. Now you see them, then they are gone.

Old Moppa Road Barossa Valley Shiraz 2022
Original price was: $14.50.$10.00Current price is: $10.00.The Barossa Valley is a remarkable wine region to visit. To move from admiring the landscape in the manner of the occasional visitor to having a profound knowledge of the how the landscape evolved (geomorphology) has given me much satisfaction.
I know Old Moppa Road very well. It runs along the western edge of the northern Barossa Valley a location with many old vine vineyards. Alas for this vintage we could not buy grapes from the location we wanted along Old Moppa so moved further north to secure supply.
This vintage was a true Barossa vintage without prolonged hot spells nor unsettling cooler periods. So out of 50 vintages the 2022 would be like about 25 of them. You want to sit with the average not the extremes. Looks good in the glass as I write this note but am wary about long term cellaring.
The wine is rich and deep but all vintages make me cautious as the unexpected can appear as they age, so 10 plus years is not recommended – unless you are happy.

Bengalee Barossa Valley Shiraz 2022
Original price was: $16.50.$10.00Current price is: $10.00.The Bengalee left Hamburg with German settlers on 10th July 1838 and arrived in Adelaide on the 19th November, 1838. It is likely a few of these arrivals later found their way to the Barossa Valley becoming part of the fabulous Barossa wine story. We picked up that story in 2008 when we released our first Bengalee Shiraz.

Glug Final Edition Barossa Valley Shiraz 2023
Original price was: $16.50.$10.00Current price is: $10.00.The Barossa Valley has no equal, globally for power and concentration. My reading relates how consumers have changed, “They want lighter, fresher styles designed for modern drinking occasions….with new packaging and clearer, taste-led cues to make the range easier to shop”. Glug recommends the exact opposite as found in the Final Edition.

Bagot Station Barossa Valley Shiraz 2023
$13.40Young reds from the right vintages without hard extract are magnificent. This Bagot reminds me of those deeply coloured and powerful Moulin a Vent-Beaujolais, I imported in the 1970s. Deep in colour, one glass led to another, as did the bottles. How can wine be so pleasant. This vintage produced wines with a pronounced aroma and the winemaker has highlighted this with a light touch in the winery-such as no pressings added back. A must buy though will not evolve into a Karrawirra.

Oakley Adams Barossa Valley Shiraz 2022
Original price was: $14.10.$8.00Current price is: $8.00.I keep telling the story of the role of wine merchants using Oakley Adams as they did the hard yards. The business was Melbourne based and began in 1871 as importers of wines and spirits. Later they promoted local wines which were bottled as Oakley Adams selections. Selling wine was hard work and did not become part of life of our social life until the post war years.

Karrawirra Barossa Valley Shiraz 2022
Original price was: $16.50.$11.00Current price is: $11.00.As customers are aware Glug favours later picking. It is possible in many vintages to leave the grapes hanging for much longer though you need a customer base to support the sales of these more extreme ripe styles.

Brutus Barossa Valley Shiraz Durif 2021
$29.90This is the eighth Brutus from 2008, 2009, 2010, 2012, 2013, 2017, 2018, and 2021. Brutus is a project to push Shiraz further by blending with Durif. Durif from the Riverine town of Griffith is exceptional and with our experience with Rutherglen Durif we knew it would blend well with Barossa Shiraz. The ABV is 15%. Shiraz with Durif is a Wonder.
